What Is Tempering in Diablo 4?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Tempering<\/strong> is the crafting system that lets you add custom Affixes<\/strong> to Legendary and Rare gear. Unlike random loot drops, Tempering gives you control over specific stats that matter for your build. Available during both leveling and endgame<\/strong>, this system is essential for optimizing your character.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

You might be wondering<\/strong>: When does Tempering become available? At level 15<\/strong>, you get an automatic priority quest that rewards your first Tempering Manual<\/strong>. Complete it at the Blacksmith in Kyovashad – there’s a treasure chest right next to him.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

\ud83d\udca1 Critical insight<\/strong>: Once you unlock Tempering on one character<\/strong> in your game state (Eternal, Seasonal, Hardcore), it becomes available at any level<\/strong> for all characters in that state. You don’t need to repeat the quest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tempering Categories and Gear Compatibility \ud83d\udcca<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Tempers fall into six categories<\/strong>, each compatible with specific gear slots:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Category<\/th>Compatible Gear Slots<\/th><\/tr><\/thead>
Weapons<\/strong><\/td>Weapons, Totems, Focus<\/td><\/tr>
Offensive<\/strong><\/td>Amulets, Weapons, Totems, Focus, Gloves, Rings<\/td><\/tr>
Defensive<\/strong><\/td>Chest Armor, Helms, Legs, Amulets, Shields<\/td><\/tr>
Utility<\/strong><\/td>Chest Armor, Helms, Legs, Amulets, Gloves, Boots, Shields<\/td><\/tr>
Mobility<\/strong><\/td>Boots, Amulets<\/td><\/tr>
Resource<\/strong><\/td>Rings, Amulets<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

\u26a0\ufe0f Critical rule<\/strong>: Once you choose a category for a gear piece, you’re locked into that category<\/strong>. You can reroll within it, but you cannot switch to a different category without resetting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Which Items Can Be Tempered? \u2713<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Temperable:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • \u2713 Rare items (1 reroll)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • \u2713 Legendary items (2 rerolls)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • \u2713 Legendary items with Greater Affixes (+1 reroll per Greater Affix, up to 7 total)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    NOT Temperable:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    • \u274c Magic items<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • \u274c Unique items<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • \u274c Mythic Unique items<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      Tempering Reroll System Explained \ud83c\udfb2<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

      Each item quality gets different reroll amounts:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Item Quality<\/th>Initial Roll<\/th>Rerolls Available<\/th>Total Attempts<\/th><\/tr><\/thead>
      Rare<\/strong><\/td>1<\/td>+1<\/td>2<\/td><\/tr>
      Legendary<\/strong><\/td>1<\/td>+2<\/td>3<\/td><\/tr>
      Legendary (Greater Affixes)<\/strong><\/td>1<\/td>+2 to +7<\/td>3 to 8<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

      \ud83d\udca1 Pro tip<\/strong>: Each Greater Affix<\/strong> on a Legendary item grants +1 additional reroll<\/strong>. This means high-quality Legendary items with multiple Greater Affixes become significantly more valuable for Tempering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Tempering Manuals – How to Find and Use \ud83d\udcd6<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

      Tempering Manuals<\/strong> drop throughout the world and come in three tiers:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Manual Tiers<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
      Tier<\/th>Affix Quality<\/th>Notes<\/th><\/tr><\/thead>
      Magic<\/strong><\/td>Lowest ranges<\/td>Early game<\/td><\/tr>
      Rare<\/strong><\/td>Medium ranges<\/td>Mid progression<\/td><\/tr>
      Legendary<\/strong><\/td>Highest ranges<\/td>Endgame optimal<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

      Important<\/strong>: All tiers provide the same Affixes<\/strong>, but higher tiers have better value ranges<\/strong>. When you temper an item, it automatically uses your highest available tier<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Where to Farm Tempering Manuals<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      \u2713 Random drops from enemies
      \u2713 Ladder Boss kills<\/strong> (high drop rate)
      \u2713 Tree of Whispers caches<\/strong>
      \u2713 World events
      \u2713 Nightmare Dungeons
      \u2713 Helltides<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Viewing Your Learned Manuals<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
      \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

      Press Ctrl+Y<\/strong> \u2192 Tempering Recipes tab<\/strong> in the Codex of Power. All learned manuals are stored here and are account-wide<\/strong> within your game state (Seasonal characters share, Eternal characters share separately).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Tempering Caps – Critical Limitations \u26a0\ufe0f<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

      This is extremely important<\/strong> and where many players waste points. Certain Tempers have hard caps<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Hard Cap Rules<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
      Stat Type<\/th>Cap<\/th>Examples<\/th><\/tr><\/thead>
      Effect Size \/ Active Size<\/strong><\/td>100%<\/td>Skill area increases, companion sizes<\/td><\/tr>
      Chance Procs<\/strong><\/td>100%<\/td>Double damage chance, skill proc twice, Crit\/Lucky Hit<\/td><\/tr>
      Attack Speed<\/strong><\/td>200%<\/td>All attack speed increases combined<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

      \u274c Common mistake<\/strong>: Stacking multiple Active Size tempers thinking you’ll get 150%+ effectiveness. You won’t. Once you hit 100%, additional points are wasted<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Example: Druid Companion Innovation<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
